Derail: attention 15 hags, smart creative intuitive & multi cultural people who I find intellectually stimulating. I’ve found myself in a conundrum. And I know so many of you have many health and family issues, that I do pray for. But i need advice as many of you are in long time marriages and partnerships. I’m embarrassed to talk to my people. I’ve been married for 34 years and have been working with my husband 6 days a week for 25 years, lately he has become so disgruntled, dismissive and angry. Going as fas as embarrassing me in front of the staff. I try walking away and he hates it. Besides medicating myself to numbness I’ve no idea how to handle it!! Please advise!!!

Waddup, Yentas! Long time no see. Since I got back from the frontlines, the injury, and recovery, my dad decided to hand over a lot of responsibilities to me lately, and my wife has been crazy busy with our soon-to-be one-year-old toddler that we have been unable to Tattle with you all. It looks like nothing much has changed with our favorite Chateau hag and her gay-in-waiting. No real work has been done in Lalande for quite some time. Even the annual spring decluttering, as expected, only to make some space for even more clutter. When are they getting married? Has Stephanie altered her will to include PhiPhi yet? We know that's the only thing Lord Nostrils and his gay son are waiting for.
Anyhoo, my wife and I were +1&2 of two friends who were invited to a small garden party. My Anglophile wife from the Republic of Texas was completely overawed by the presence of royalty (I admit, so was I). It was our first time visiting the palace as non-tourists, and gave us a lot of memories to talk about with our future grandkids!
Keep on tattling!

@mrsp67 while I’ve never been married, much less had a successful longterm relationship I do have a few insights into men. As a gentleman of a certain age I began going through andropause in my late 40’s escalating into my early 50’s. It’s also called age related low testosterone. My symptoms were very similar to what you are describing. Short tempered to the point of viciousness, belittling, frustrated, distractible and quite a bit scared. For me the personality changes were confusing and frightening. I also noticed physical changes, some involving the act of sex itself, some just bodily changes. And the hot flashes, dear God, the hot flashes. How you ladies manage that I’ll never know. I think your husband comes from a very macho culture. If so,he’s probably terrified and that will add fuel to the fire. Not all men go through this. I have a terrific care team and both my primary care and urologist did not recommend HRT for men as it often worsens the symptoms, not to mention causing health complications. They still sent me to an endocrinologist, who confirmed the diagnosis and also recommended against it. The best advice I got was to wait it out and let my hormone levels readjust. Once I was on the other side of the process, my symptoms resolved and most of the behaviors reverted to normal. I am still more short tempered and my filters are absolutely shot, but I’ve learned to stop and take a deep breath before responding. That said, if he is indeed going through andropause that’s still no excuse for his behavior. Most men are loathe to get medical help for the simplest of things, much less something they might see as embarrassing. He will probably need to be coaxed into going. I’m not a prayer personally. In this instance I have asked my church prayer chain across the Gulf Coast and up the Eastern Seaboard to put out a request. Even my humanist group is asking for good vibes for you. I hope this helps and you get the best possible outcome to your challenges. This poisonous troll will be here if you need any more support.

Slight derail, my Sister in Law Has just sent me this photo.
On my recent trip back to the UK we finally scattered my Mum and Dad's ashes, in the park where they first met.
This was the view last night from the spot. Stunning, hope they enjoyed the show.
As always, thank you all in the way you all are contributing.
Remember, we do have a wiki
Happy Tattling.
